           Summary: AvoidUnnecessarySpecializationRule is too aggressive
                    when dealing with generic types and suggesting base
                    interaces
    Classification: Mono
           Product: Mono: Tools

See provided test case.  Gendarme suggests that a less specialized interface
type be used in a method override, despite the fact a more derived type was
used as a generic parameter type.

See test case for more detail:

There's probably a little more code in there than necessary to repro the issue,
 but I was trying to get this one before I head to bed ;0

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run test
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Failure

Expected Results:  
Success
